[ Oh. Shoulders droop a little. At least Kanji didn't say a complete no. Worth a shot anyway right? ]

Hey, that's understandable. Can't be easy starting from scratch like that. I'm best reached through my inbox, but considering how this place seems to work, you can contact me however you like, whenever you need a hand with the place.

[ Looking over the shop now, taking in the ambiance. ]

So textiles...you did this back where you're from huh?

[very_elaborate]

I'll let you know if something comes up.

Yeah, family shop followed me from home. [Honestly, after six months on Atia it's good to see the place again - if weird that his ma's nowhere to be found, here.] Figured I might as well try to make it work.

[ A nod ]

Must be weird having something like this come up out of nowhere. You'd think the city was being too accommodating in making everybody stay here by bringing in all these reminders from home.

[ Not that he minded Coba bringing in a B-Ball court and Cabo Luna from his 'verse, he'd rather have them any day over Providence HQ ]

[Kanji shrugs.] After six months not home, it's good to see - weirdest thing's not havin' Ma here.

[He's just... glad there's a house to stay in. With people. He's not ready to spend time in the shop with no company. It's quiet enough at home with just two people.]

And apparently we can go home whenever, so there's that. Ain't tried it yet, though.

Six months? She must have taught you everything about sewing and stuff huh?

[ Smile lessens slightly and something unreadable enters the blue-green gaze ]

You can. Time stops when you’re in the city, so you can always go back to where you left off.

[ Which was a small comfort for Noah really. It means Caesar wouldn’t have the opportunity to miss him like he would miss Rex. Besides, even if Noah didn’t have any other reason to go back, didn’t mean others didn’t. ]

My dad taught me more of it, actually. I mean, Ma's no slouch, but Dad got me started young.

Good to know, I just - I got yanked to the last place I was a few weeks ahead of one'a my friends. Ain't been real keen on resetting the difference there yet. [But at least he could come back and get some Naoto time in between?]
